Two more Animated toys coming from Hasbro?

[griffin]

I was looking on the Hasbro US website for official (unwatermarked) pics of the Movie Activators, and when I sorted by 'newest first', two unreleased Animated Voyagers came up before the PCC figures (which I thought were the most recently listed).

Thundercracker
http://www2.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/shop/details.cfm?guid=FA3C37CA-19B9-F369-103A-E94AE669B405&product_id=26914&src=endeca

Mudbuster Bulkhead
http://www2.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/shop/details.cfm?guid=FA2AD07A-19B9-F369-10CD-B0ABDF33EDDC&product_id=26913&src=endeca

Is this something new, or are they old listings and the sorting was just messed up on their product listing page?
They didn't show up in the Hasbro store though, but I'm not too familiar with how or why Hasbro lists products on their TFs page, so will have to see what others say about it.

Both are just redecos, but I think some would like a Voyager Thundercracker to add to the Voyager seekers (Starscream, Skywarp, Sunstorm). And I think the recent TRU exclusives (Arcee and Ratchet) did well, so probably prompted more store exlusives?

I thought these two were announced quite a while ago?

but that they were eventually cancelled (or 'discontinued')

They popped up about few months ago (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/official-images-of-animated-voyager-thundercracker-and-mudbuster-bulkhead/17697/)

It seems those pics are just from an online store (which got them from Hasbro), but with Hasbro's own website now listing them, maybe it means a release is definitely now going to happen?
It's so hard to know what Hasbro are able or willing to do, especially after a series is cancelled before all planned figures are released.

Thundercracker - must get. Bulkhead - meh - pointless repaint. They shouldve just made Rodimus and/or Blackout their version so that we're not short as only TAKTOM is the source ... for now and is very limited in numbers for a worldwide demand:mad:

After I asked one of the tfw2005 staff about this, the global fansites are now front-paging the story (TFW2005 at least creditted me with the find). Makes me think that people are also hoping this looks like an iminant release from Hasbro.
Fingers crossed. (I want a Thundercracker)

I wish they'd give us Activators Sunstorm and Skywarp.

We _need_ Animated Voyager Dirge and Animated Voyager Slipstream!

So willing to put up with the numerous, terrible and often very noticeable QC flaws!
